I solved which patch was the culprit and have just pushed V6-dev.16.

Thanks for your patience and code contributions.

Subject: [NFS-Ganesha-Devel] PLEASE READ - NO MERGE THIS WEEK - NEED TO PULL BACK AND ANALYZE FAILURES

Sorry, I just spent several hours trying to get a successful merge. I keep getting Ganesha crashing during the pynfs 4.0 RPLY8 test case. I thought I had it narrowed down to a particular patch, so rebuilt V6-dev.16 without that patch, and started a full pynfs 4.0 test run which promptly caused Ganesha to crash while running RPLY8.

Based on the test case I actually suspect the courteous server support is causing the crash (it’s a test that would be impacted by courteous server – establishing a lock then not renewing least for 2 lease periods).

We are going to have step back and deeply analyze code to determine the cause of these crashes.

In the meantime, I am rescinding all +2 code reviews. I will leave +1 code reviews in place.

Thanks
